-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Denver Broncos face the San Diego Chargers as the two AFC powerhouses will face each other in Week 6's Monday Night Football game at 8:20 p.m. ET.
The Chargers have the best record in the AFC West division at 3-2, but they are just a game in front of the 2-3 Broncos.
Both teams are coming off tough loses in Week 5. The Chargers made history allowing Drew Brees to complete a touchdown catch in his 48th consecutive game. For the Broncos' Peyton Manning it was deja vu as he dropped another match to Tom Brady.
The math is simple for both teams. If the Chargers win, the pull up two games in front of the Broncos. If Denver can go into San Diego and defeated the Chargers, then they find themselves in a tie for first place.
The rest of the division looks too weak to compete against these two teams. The Kansas City Chiefs are at the bottom of the pile at 1-5 and the Oakland Raiders are 1-4.
Following his last Monday Night appearance against the Atlanta Falcons where Manning threw three interceptions in the first quarter, he has eight touchdowns, no interceptions in over 1,000 yards passing.
The Chargers are coming into this game with the 22nd ranked passing defense in the league giving up 260 aerial yards per game. The Charger's strength is running, but the Broncos are not a running team now that they have a real quarterback calling plays.
